Who is giving instructions to drill holes in the air box?

I have never had a 44mm or a 48mm bbk run well using ant part of the stock airbox or even the rubber tube that connects the carb to the air box.

i bought it from chop chop 123 on ebay

what kind of air intake setup should i run

44mm kits run great with uni filters.

48mm kits need bigger carbs and exhaust to run right.

i don't know a lot about motors but im trying to figure out why it would not run right with a brand new oil breather filter in the end of the carb, but when hooked back up to the stock airbox it ran better

Is the oil breather filters ID hole smaller than the mouth of the carb ?

i took off the rubber grommet and took my dremel tool and rounded off trhe openening on the filterand i had a xtra intake tube and slid it inside of the the hole i made wider so it was just like a mini cone filter but it ran really bad so i hooked back up to the airbox

Take a picture and show me how you did it.

well just a little update, i got my air filter in today, and i let it idle for about 5 mins, tonight and took the plug out and it was soaking wet with oil/gas is this normal??,but anyway i drained the gas out of the tank to start over should i just drain the oil tank to and just premix in the tank?? thanks,

Are you talking about a stock filter for you stock airbox?

yes, stock foam air filter

did you ever try to run it with no airbox or tube?

yep, it ran horrable, spitting and spuddering, then hooked it back to the factory airbox and ran better, i'm beginning to think that jet that came with the big bore kit is too much???

Have you tried adjusting the needle clip postion?

i'm sorry pardon my inexperiance with 2 stroke motors what is that and were is it?
